Just show current setting in bootlog.

Is there any particular reason you think this needs to be logged by
default, rather than letting users run ethtool -k?  I suggest using
dev_dbg() instead.
Ok. I have looked at it and there are missing some bits in ndev->features.

Can you please check that my setting is correct?

It is SG DMA ip/driver.
ndev->features = NETIF_F_FRAGLIST | NETIF_F_SG
NETIF_F_SG only; NETIF_F_FRAGLIST means you can handle skbs chained
through the frag_list pointer.
With two options for csum on RX/TX. They can be selected independently.
tx Partial csum over IPv4. -> NETIF_F_IP_CSUM
tx Full csum. -> NETIF_F_HW_CSUM
NETIF_F_IP_CSUM means you have hardware checksum generation for TCP/IPv4
and UDP/IPv4 only (XAE_FEATURE_FULL_TX_CSUM).

NETIF_F_HW_CSUM means you have generic TCP-style checksum generation
using the csum_start and csum_offset fields of the skb
(XAE_FEATURE_PARTIAL_TX_CSUM).  By the way, you're actually testing
XAE_FEATURE_PARTIAL_RX_CSUM in axienet_start_xmit()...
rx Full csum -> NETIF_F_RXCSUM

Is there any option to support partial csum?
There is no need to differentiate these in the device features.  For TX
the stack needs to know whether to use a software fallback before
passing the skb to you, but on RX it looks at the ip_summed field of
each skb you pass up.

Ben.
